I'm trying to send variable length data "packets" to a Indy IdTCPServer.

How can I receive all the data that is currently in the internal Indy read 
buffer without having to wait for a fixed amount of data to be in it ?

Eg. If I read data like this :

char* buffer = new char[200];
while(!AThread->Terminated){
    AThread->Connection->ReadBuffer(buffer, 200);
    ...
};
...

Then the app can only work with 200 bytes chucks of data. Even if the 
sending app sent a 100 byte chunk and then a 300 byte chunk.

Sorry if I haven't explained easily.
